Unhappy Failed again!!

hi there, this was my 2nd time taking the Nclex and i got 75 questions. I had checked the BON wesite everyday for 2 weeks and my name didnt show up so i guess that should have warned me. I tried Suzanne's study guide, Mosby's CAT and Lippincotts but i guess I am that dumb.I honestly thought i did better this time.Am i just not smart enough? I am numb right now, am done crying and feeliong like this is not healthy. I want to give up so bad. I am tired!!!

Re: Failed again!!

Please don't give up. I'm currently in the LVN program and one of the instructors told us that she took the NCLEX 7 times. She went back to school and got her BSN and of course, her Masters. You're not dumb, it's just not the right time. I use to have test anxiety even though I knew the materials, I would freeze up and fail the exams. I had hypnosis last year to get rid of my test anxiety and I'm happy to say that now I ace my test.

Good luck next time!

Re: Failed again!!

You can do this.. I just got my license yesterday and I graduated JUNE 05'.. It was my 3rd try before i got mine.. Just don't give up my recommendation for study guide would be saunders.. I have one if you would like it.. It has very little marks in it. You can have it free of charge just pay to have it shipped. I will do what I can to help another person to try and get their license

thanks guys for the encouragement and support. I studied for 2 months and i used the mosby CAT,saunders and kaplan CDs. I was so sure i passed this time but i guess i got worse since the test stopped at 75. It just makes you lose confidence in yourself.
